It has always been a unique sense of ritual in Harbin.
Now this sentence has evolved into
"Go, go to the river to see the gulls."
Spring returns to the north
Harbin has unlocked the "new play method"
Recently, hundreds of gulls in the urban section of Songhua River staged a dancing "famous scene", which attracted countless tourists and citizens to watch and take photos and experience the "small beauty" of harmonious coexistence between people and birds at close range.
The river breeze caresses in spring
Sit and watch the flock of gulls fly.
Come to the river to watch gulls with people you like.
Enjoy a pleasant time
Citizen tourists sigh
This is a new decompression method of Erbin.

From the center of the Songpu Bridge to the riverside park, these beautiful "white elves" chase and play, gather together for food, use the Songhua River as their playground and canteen, enjoy eating and playing, and occasionally plunge into the river, surf and interact with tourists on the shore.
"The Songhua River is so beautiful that there are more gulls than before, which is a sign that the ecological environment in Harbin is improving." "People love birds and bird lovers, and now the gulls are leaning against crowded places, and the sound of birds is very beautiful." "It’s a good time in the north, and the clear water, blue sky and white clouds are a perfect match with the smart gulls. It’s so hot!" ….. Netizens said that the "new scene" of the gull in Songhua River in Harbin is comparable to that in Dianchi Lake in Kunming, which will attract more and more tourists.
Why are there so many gulls this year?
According to Professor Xu Qing from the College of Wildlife and Nature Reserve of Northeast Forestry University,
First, the spring in Harbin came early this year, and it officially entered the meteorological spring on April 11, 12 days earlier than the normal spring date. The weather is warm, and the opening date of the river is earlier than normal, so the gull came back early and stayed longer.
Second, before and after the May Day every year, it is the time when the ice city gulls migrate home, and the population reaches its peak. After that, they will spread around Harbin, instead of appearing in the river like this.
Third, the water quality of Songhua River has been significantly improved, the river is rich in fish and shrimp, the ecological environment along the river is getting better and better, and the public’s awareness of bird love and protection has increased, and human disturbance has decreased. Gulls can "live and work in peace and contentment" and no longer continue to look for breeding grounds in the north, and the number of gulls who choose to stay has increased significantly.
It is understood that the "gull" in Harbin is actually a seagull, mainly from the Bohai Sea area. As a summer migratory bird, it will "stop" during the migration process and settle down in the ice city to breed offspring. At present, there are five kinds of most common gulls in Harbin, namely red-billed gull, bearded floating gull, common tern, white-fronted tern and white-winged floating gull, among which the red-billed gull is the largest. They are lively and like group activities. They are the most suitable waterfowl for outdoor viewing and have a high value.
The best "gull-watching moment" in Songhua River has arrived. From returning to the north in April to moving to the south in November, the "companionship period" of gulls lasts for 8 months, and the best viewing period is mainly concentrated in the spring and autumn, especially during the "May 1" and "Eleventh" periods.
As an ice city waterfowl who has been with the citizens for the longest time, in recent years, the gulls have shown the characteristics of distribution from the Yangtze River to the inland river. Places with water systems will appear in the urban area, and citizens can watch them at their doorsteps, especially in the morning and evening.
